Looking for an accessible app that searches apartments/housing

Hello.

Does anyone know of an accessible app that will let someone search for houses and appartments for rent? My wife and I are trying to find a place to call home, but she's the one that's doing all the looking at this point. With her going to school for nursing, she won't have a lot of time to look around, so I'm wanting to help her look, and see what's out there. We live in Denver Colorado, so trying to look around here and see what places are available that allows dogs, since we have 2 of the 4 leg furry friends. Any help would be appreciated. I tried apps like Zillo, and rent.com, but the accessibility on both apps isn't so good. Thanks.

Jay

I'm also looking for places for friends of mine, and I found that rent.com is a reasonably accessible app for this sort of thing. Just enter in the city you are looking for housing in, and double tap on the lists button. You can also get yourself an account so you can save searches. Hope that helps.

Hi. Try apartments.com and of course though it's not ideal, look at craigslist. Try the site apartments.com before you see if their's an app don't quote me on that. ;) Good luck.

I found apartment.com a bit on the clumsy side personally. So, was relatively pleasantly surprised to find rent.com was a bit easier to handle as far as the layout, once you've entered in the search for city and adjusted the filtering, then doubletapped on lists. You have a nice list of places one after the other which you can tap on for more details including the ability to favorite, share, email, or call, if there's a call button for said place.
